PsiMedia is a thick abstraction layer for providing audio and video RTP services to Psi-like IM clients. The implementation is based on GStreamer.

As of 0.13, voice calling is a standard feature of Psi on all major platforms. Unlike the earlier "Jingle branch" of Psi which used libjingle, current Psi versions use GStreamer.

Re: Voice Calling with Psi (PsiMedia)
libjingle seems to be obsolete / deprecated.
... and for the psimedia part then ...UPDATE: June 7th, 2009: As of 0.13, Jingle voice calling is available as part of the main branch. It is no longer a separate branch, and also no longer uses libjingle. See Voice Calling.
If you are building from source (e.g. on Linux) and want voice calls, you will need to obtain the PsiMedia plugin separately. On Linux, the plugin file is called libgstprovider.so, and must be put in Psi's $LIBDIR/psi/plugins directory. You'll know it worked if "About GStreamer" appears in the Help menu.
So it can only be easier to improve the usability by providing just that single file in a package.README wrote: To build the plugin and demo program, run:
./configure
make
There is no "make install". The compiled plugin can be found under the
gstprovider directory. An application that uses PsiMedia should have
instructions on what to do with the plugin.
Code: Select all
install -D -m 755 gstprovider/libgstprovider.so $startdir/pkg/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}/psi/plugins/libgstprovider.so
